I am so far behind on crocheting anything I fell over a week ago & sprained my wrist bad & it's just starting to feel good enough to get back to crocheting, maybe I can catch up:hook

[Krystal16]

I rolled my skein of coffee into a ball this morning!! +1

[CLLinda]

Haven't really crocheted much this week. Busy cleaning. My least favorite thing to do.

 

Bringing in car to get brakes fixed. Taking along a large tote of yarn to work on while I sit there in the tiny office.

 

I hope to rack up some points today.

I rolled 3 half used skiens into balls today, so +3 for me! That makes my score -9 so far.

[walker1021]

All I have to say is Oops! - I'm at a -220 this week!

Can I come roll in your newly acquired stash?? Pretty please???? It has been almost a month since I have bought any new stash. Withdrawls are starting to kick in. lol

[yarn_monkey]

Well my FGM has set me waaaaay back, but I definitely can't complain!

 

Let me start from the beginning here... I used up 1 skein and turned 2 skeins into balls on my eight-pocket tote, so that's +4 added to my -5, so I was at -1 until I picked up my RAOK package from the post office. In the package were 2 skeins of Patons wool (-4), 3 skeins of regular Sugar n Cream (-6) and 3 skeins of Sugar n Cream Twists (-6)... so my total for the week so far is -17. I need to get to stitchin!! :crocheting

[sahm2g1b]

Rolled 1 more skein into a ball so +1. Slowly working my way back to 0!

[CLLinda]

I had two wonderful hours to crochet as my car got it's brakes fixed. It was so nice.

Now it's back to housework.

[hseger]

Well I'm really in trouble now I just got a care package and in it was 19 skeins and 5 balls of misc. novelty yarns Oh well what a way to go

 

another -43 points to my very deep hole I'm getting in.

[HappyOldCro]

Well I guess I won't be shooting the moon this week, . Thanks to all the lovely ladies who are stashing up....

Me I am still sitting still (actually sewing again), so no pluses for me either.

another -43 points to my very deep hole I'm getting in.

 

 

It is certainly a lovely hole to be in, though!!

[sahm2g1b]

OK - I've gotta stay out of the stores! I bought 14 more skiens(-28)! Boy, my score keeps getting lower and lower! Oh, well! Lots of fun coming up with all these wonderful colors! So my score for the week is -36.

[hseger]

I used up a ball yesterday!! +1 now I hope to use up another skein and ball today but still that won't make a dent.

 

Yep Nikki, It is a lovely hole to be in.

14:

full 2.5oz ball:cream cotton

3.5oz skein:posy

+4

[appy_lover]

I'm doing better this week!! I used another full skein of cotton last night making wash clothes for kitches sets for grads. I have 6 graduates this year!! 1 is my sister and the other 5 are cousins of my dh & I. I have almost used another skein this morning so watch out for me this week.

[Krystal16]

I rolled another blue skein into a ball on my daisy afghan border +1

[hseger]

I finished off a skein and a ball tonight so another +3 for me.

[Schmetterling]

Oh my gosh, my first medal!!! Wahoo!!!

 

I know I know, this was posted several days ago, but as you may have seen in another thread I just got home from the hospital this afternoon after being in for 6 days. I was admitted on emergency basis so I didn't get to see the results until now.

 

WAHOO!

 

Unfortunately since I've been away and only had one skein with me in the hospital (to work a bit on my shawler) my score for this week will be pretty uneventful. My mom flew in today to stay with us a couple weeks, tomorrow my daughter has her kinder graduation ceremony, and it's just plain busy and I'm just plain still not feeling well.

 

Ah well, still very excited about last week's score!
